MAJOR CORPORATIONS BOYCOTTING TO FORCE FACEBOOK TO EMPLOY EVEN MORE EXTREME CENSORING OF
CONSERVATIVE VIEWS (Friday Church News Notes, July 3, 2020, www.wayoflife.org, fbns@wayoflife.org, 866-295-
4143) - The following is excerpted from “In growing boycott, Coca-Cola, Hershey, Honda pledge to hit pause on
Facebook advertising,” Just the News, June 27, 2020: “Coca-Cola, Hershey and Honda have agreed to roll back
advertising on Facebook through July, part of a coordinated campaign to force the tech giant to enact stricter
content-moderation policies on its platform. The ‘Stop Hate for Profit’ campaign argues that Facebook has ‘turned
a blind eye to blatant voter suppression,’ ‘allowed incitement to violence against protesters fighting for
racial justice in America,’ partnered with conservative news outlets with ‘records of working with known white
nationalists,’ and in general promoted ‘hate, bigotry, racism, antisemitism and violence.’ Dozens of businesses have
also agreed to the boycott including Mozilla, North Face, REI and Verizon. The boycott, a project of the
Anti-Defamation League, offers several tips it argues will help Facebook ‘provide more support to people who are
targets of racism, antisemitism and hate.’”
